Rosa socks
While this design came to life, the whole Swedish knitting community was grief struck when we learned we had lost one of our dear friends. In honour of her, these socks are named after her oldest daughter - Rosa.
All sales from this pattern between October 24-26, 2025, will be donated to Läkarmissionen, an international aid organisation where for 180 SEK, you can give a woman a safe childbirth.
Thank you for choosing this pattern!
